Lykke Li Video Weekend!

Springs coming.... The Suns out... and I really love Lykke Li. Her blissful sound regained stride on my playlist again and flying high I cant complain.

This weekend imma post my favorite videos of hers. I posted this one a while back and it still is looking good for is my cloud nine number one.

Today I want to start with Lykke Li's, "I'm Good, I'm Gone" and make sure to address the flint-hearted, invidious, relentlessly bitter population. You know who you are.

Enjoy.

I'm workin' a sweat
But it's all good
I'm breakin' my back
But it's all good
'cause I know I'll get it back
Yeah, I know your hands will clap

Yeah, I'm workin'
Yeah, I'm workin'
To make butter for my piece of bun

And if you say I'm not OK
Then that's the goal
If you say there ain't no way that I could know
If you say I aim too high from down below
Well, say it know 'cause when I'm gone...
You'll be callin' but I won't be at the phone

xoxo,

Is This for Real?

Ok ok... SO this is a watch, a camera, and a phone... This contraption has a touch screen, it records videos and even plays music. Wearing this on your wrist will surely get you some double takes. I don't even know what to call it but it comes available in black and gold, pink, or white equipped with 7 different languages.

Well one things for sure... I wouldn't be struggling to find my phone as its ringing in my purse cause I just have to grab it off my wrist.

What the Fuck?

I Aint Givin Him No Lovin

I be feedin my gut, Eating chicken in the kitchen, He aint busting no nut.

**Shake shake shakin they butt**

I heart this.

Its Barbie Bitch.

And now she struts Christian Louboutin's.

I want one. There is a box that contains heels that looks like the Louboutin that I have tattooed on myself. I thought I needed it, because it was clearly calling my name... but then came to realization that I would just end up trying to sell it on Craig's list like my boxed Public Enemy dolls... Any takers? (email me!)

Anyways, I would like a print of one of the ads pictured similar to the one below, they are super adorable and would look real dainty in my shoe room.

I luh, luh, love these dishy designs and the fact that Mr. Louboutin is Barbies "godfather" for a whole year is ill with such pleasing intention. Mmmhhmmmmm.

New Gem Acquistions

Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy...

We all know that my time is completely occupied when Mr. Scott drops a new line. This 2010 fall collection captivates my fancy. Here's a look at my favorite must have pieces.

Two years ago, Skully bought me a bedazzler for my birthday. I used to have one when I was little. Jewels, sequins, diamonds and shinny things have always sparked an interest in my life and I have learned to accept that the charmed hardware will never leave. Not to long ago I Bejeweled everything I owned and then retired the machine.... Looks like Imma bring it back, bust out some skills and make it work.

Put a little diamond shine in your life.

Delicious Eye Confection: The frogskins clear candy red Valentines Edition just makes my mouth water.
The red frame on these bad boys fades to white and is matched with the red iridium lens. Now.... All that being said, there are only 30 pairs of these made.

These shades are not available to the public but I want to see that candy hearts package on my doorstep.

Work your game. Go on and get em for me.

Bitch on a Budget

Sunday Afternoon we drove to Barnes & Noble to do some book browsing and buying. I could spend all day and night in there if you dropped me off but sunday was a different case and we were out the door about an hour after we arrived. On my way walking out my eyes were burned by the glittering shine of this book. At first site it captured my concentration and I came to a sudden stop, reached out my hand, and picked up Bitches on a Budget.

I guess you could say the first word being "bitches" in bright red with an image of a locked up purse printed on the cover is what caught my attention. As my hands were grasp on the front and back of this book, my thumb brushed against the pages starting in the beginning, leading me the the middle.
Funny thing is I stopped on this page which said Online Shopping is the devil. Tooo fuckin funny. I love online shopping more than brandy old fashions. The book hooked me up with a couple more sites and then I browsed on.

The run-through I had with this book was quite intriguing and I decided to find more online.

"Bitches need to eat" if you cant buy this book, go to your local library.
Educate a bitch.

Fellas, Getcha Feet Right...

A few days ago The Hundreds dropped these Low Leather Johnson's.

The new colorways they got out make me smile. Fellas.... for real. Their pleasing look is polished with attitude, giving me an opportunity to approach the 'wearin one' in a cup-cakin sort of way. Ha. Riiaaaghht... Mind your manners proficiently.

The allure and grace of this shoe could attract someone on a smuggling symmetric level. Don't let them creep away.

Available @ Wholesome.

Today I learned how to spell MARGIELA.

Mmmhmmm.

This 23 K gold plated ring set is my shit!

Maison Martin Margiela has always came off as a raw designer with a touch of mysterious edge to me. I love it!

I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be like Miiikkeee. ( You can too, getcha class here. )

Educate yourself.

Close your Eyes

"I never let it get me down cause my spirit's raisin till the point I'm grounded but steady levitating."

Take a moment out of your day to close your eyes and listen.

This is love.

"I'm on my way to my next jet."

Disillusioned Winter

I usually love Winter. I love to see the snow on the ground, I love to see the crystals glistening on the tree branches. I love to see snowmen and Christmas lights.... But this winter isnt havin it.

If its not sub zero temperatures its raining. I'm done with winter. I wish it would surrender to the summer months.

Winter:

You wake up early and its pitch black then a sudden change of grey occurs. If your lucky maybe the sun will come out in the afternoon but chances are very low.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As I was getting my pictures transferred over to my new phone I passed these one up. These were taking last summer. This is what I truly desire, its what I long and yearn for. ha! Bring summer back to me.

On the real note... I used to wake up and take the devils children(my dogs) on a walk and this is what I got to see almost every morning.

Bright and early, the first blush is a beautiful thing. If you wake up prematurely, this is what you get; If you sleep in, this is what you are missing out on.

The break of day:
Exquiste and Pulchritudinous.

Im waiting...

Double C's Spring 2010 Stamp

Mmmmmmhmmm... Crooks & Castles Spring 2010 Collection Lookbook reminds me of myself a bit last summer. I miss it.

Ladies bringing in bandanna print leggings and t-shirts is what I love.

The lady in this Lookbook is topped with an excessive amount of necklaces and bracelets wrapped up her arms just dripping with spice creating an attitude that defines edge.

Check out more of the Collection here.

Milwaukee Mash Punishes

This piece is called "Snows Revenge...."

Via lipstick diaries, found on Etsy, this Graphic designer from Milwaukee is producing some ill shiaaaaaaaaaat.

His description of this piece is :
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the baddest b**ch of them all?
It's Snow's turn and she's on a mission.

Shit I like...

OFF THE WALL :: Doze Green - Studio Visit from friendswelove.com on Vimeo.

This put me in a great mood this Saturday morning.

Welcome to the Mad House

I cant get the Balenciaga 2010 Spring Collection out of my head.

It seems like this season they went with a futuristic sporty concept and its teasing me... Bad. I'm in dire need of that hooded vest; I feel like it could be love. With its astonishing handiwork, the leather vest features different material being lined, stamped, and woven together with ribbons and elastic.

Yup, gives you the butterflies, I know.

These short leather boots that side with linen and wool (which are handwoven on a loom) which are joined by tasteful metal chains are... the... dimepiece. Although, I'm not a big fan of the heel... I appreciate these boots and the fact that I find them so appealing.

Welcome to the Mad house...

I Cant get the collection out of my head.

Its like to eat cereal without a spoon.
